365 IAC 2-1-23 Inaccurate bulk tank checks

Sec. 23. (a) In all instances in which a licensed bulk milk hauler receives an unsatisfactory bulk tank check, a second bulk tank check must be performed at a later, unannounced date. (b) If the results of the second bulk tank check are also unsatisfactory, a meeting must be scheduled to include the bulk milk hauler, the manager of the creamery license division, the field person for the affected area, and a representative of the plant to which the hauler delivers. The purpose of this meeting is to determine the reason or reasons causing the bulk tank checks to be unsatisfactory. (c) A short time after the meeting, a third bulk tank check must be performed to determine whether the cause of the unsatisfactory checks has been corrected. If the results are still unsatisfactory, a hearing with the bulk milk hauler must be scheduled before the creamery examining board to resolve the matter. Options range up to withdrawing the sampler's license.
